Default King Charles' Coronation

I am hoping to be able to get up in the wee hours over here and watch the coronation, as this is pretty historical. We'll see???

Yes, God save the king!

Agreed! The choir music is drifting through from the lounge TV as I type this.

Vivat Rex!

Got up, but was still half asleep and forgot why I got up!!! I'll have to see if I can find it on YouTube!

Sounds awesome and I am very happy for King Charles and for the UK.

God save the king!

A superb day, enjoyed all of it. Made me very proud to be Brotish.

Enjoyed seeing a mix of E11R and C111R Royal Cyphers and a mix of QC and New KC on many of the uniforms and livery.

regards

An revealing article by Adam Bychawski, and Jenna Corderoy, for Open Democracy, yesterday, on over-stretched councils splashing out bundles on coronation bashes regardless of having been forced to cut services and increase taxes to negate bankruptcy:
